Yield<br />

• Bolts in bearing joints are designed to meet two limit states:<br />

1. Yielding, which is an inelastic deformation (above left)<br />

2. Fracture, which is a failure of the joint (above left)<br />

• The material ilthe bolt bears against is also subject to yielding ildi or fracture if it is<br />

undersized for the load (above right)<br />

• Tension connections act similarly to bearing connections<br />

• Many times, connections in direct tension are reconfigured so that the bolts act<br />

in shear<br />
